"It's Baby Dallas’ birthday," I said in peace.It had been years since I lost my beautiful baby boy, Dallas. The pain of his passing was still fresh in my heart, and every year on his birthday, I would visit his grave at the cemetery. It was the only way I could feel close to him again.As I walked through the rows of headstones, my heart felt heavy with sorrow. I couldn't help but think about him.Finally, I reached Dallas' grave and knelt down in front of it. Tears streamed down my face as I placed a bouquet of flowers on his headstone.“Happy birthday, my sweet baby boy,' I whispered, my voice choked with emotion.Just then, I heard a familiar voice behind me. “Mommy!” it said.I froze, thinking I was imagining things. But then I heard it again, more clearly this time. “Mommy!” I turned around and to my surprise, I saw my ex-husband, Marcus, standing there with our son, Marco.“Marco is looking for you,” Marcus said, his voice soft and gentle.“Why did you know that I'm here?” I as

Elijah burst into my office, catching me off guard as tears streamed down my face once again. "Samantha, you can't let yourself be consumed by this all day," Elijah said firmly, his concern evident in his voice. "Please, take a moment to compose yourself. Your father wouldn't want to see you like this," he urged, his words filled with compassion. I poured out my heart to him, sharing all my troubles, and he responded by pulling me into a tight embrace. "I'm here for you, Samantha. Trust me, things will get better," he reassured me, a warm smile gracing his face. "There's a time for everything," he added, his words carrying a sense of wisdom. His words brought a smile to my face, and somehow, I felt a glimmer of hope in what he said. "For now, focus on the company. Distract yourself and find solace in your work," he advised, his voice calm and soothing. "Don't let sadness consume you, because you deserve happiness," he said gently, his words resonating within me. "Honestly, I

I approached my son Marco with a heavy heart, my mind clouded with disappointment and anger after catching a glimpse of him with Sofia. Determined to address the situation, I swiftly made my way towards him, my voice filled with concern as I pulled him aside."Marco stay away from that woman!"As I confronted him, I noticed the shock on the face of the woman standing beside him. To my surprise, it wasn't Sofia at all. It was just a girl who happened to resemble her in hairstyle and body language.Feeling a pang of regret, I quickly apologized to the woman for my mistaken identity. "I'm truly sorry, Miss. I jumped to conclusions without knowing the truth. Please forgive me."She responded with understanding, assuring me that she was simply helping my son find me since he had been wandering around lately. Guilt washed over me as I realized the gravity of my hasty judgment.Turning my attention back to Marco, I could see the confusion in his eyes as he tried to comprehend why I had appro

My heart skipped a beat as I heard the voice on the other end of the line. Atty. Chua, my divorce lawyer, was calling me. Instantly, my mind raced with questions. Had something gone wrong? Was there a problem with the settlement?Trying to steady my nerves, I asked, "Our divorce was finalized months ago. Is there an issue?"Atty. Chua's tone remained serious as he replied, "Well, that's what I wanted to discuss with you. I've been reviewing your cenomar, and it appears that you are still legally married to Mr. Marcus Johnson."My eyes widened in disbelief. How could this be? Marcus and I had filed a grueling divorce process, and I was certain it was all behind me."That can't be right. I signed the necessary paperwork. Are you sure there hasn't been a mistake?" I inquired, my voice trembling with anxiety."I'm sorry, Mrs.Johnson, but according to the records, your divorce was never finalized. There was a delay in processing the paperwork, and it seems that the final decree was never f

He declared, "I allow you to give him with what he wants."As I sat across from Elijah, gazing into his eyes, I couldn't help but marvel at his unwavering commitment."Are you absolutely certain about this?" I asked, my voice filled with both gratitude and concern.Elijah let out a deep sigh, his hand reaching out to hold mine, offering a comforting squeeze."I understand that it won't be easy, but if it means your ex-husband finally signs those divorce papers and we can begin our new life together, then I'm more than willing to endure it."Guilt washed over me, knowing that it was my past mistakes that had led us to this complicated situation."Just negotiate with him," Marcus had suggested, but it was Elijah who had stepped up, showing incredible understanding and compassion.I embraced him tightly, expressing my gratitude for his understanding. "I can't wait for the day we can finally get married," he whispered, his voice filled with hope."Thank you, my love," I whispered back, ov
